Descriptions

Cscape (All versions prior to 9.90 SP3.5) lacks proper validation of user-supplied data when parsing project files. This could lead to an out-of-bounds read. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.

Cscape (todas las versiones anteriores a 9.90 SP3.5) carece de una comprobación apropiada de los datos suministrados por el usuario al analizar los archivos de proyecto. Esto podría conllevar a una lectura fuera de límites. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del proceso actual

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Horner Automation Cscape. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of CSP files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated data structure. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
